Kevin Ayers Joy of a Toy lp

$24.00

lp
2012/1969
new
1st solo album outside of the Soft Machine, written while hiding out on the beach in Spain after his first experience touring the USA made him so uncomfortable he gave away his bass. Crafty melodies that are tidy and melancholic at the same time, & also neatly set off Ayer's baritone voice. The crazy guitar effect & pendulum-like construction of 'Girl on a Swing' are good enough to serve as an example of what pop-psychedelia is all about. Robert Wyatt, Hugh Hopper, Mike Ratledge & David Bedford all guest. Tracklisting: Joy of a Toy Continued, Town Feeling, The Clarietta Rag, Girl on a Swing, Song for Insane Times, Stop This Train, Eleanor's Cake, The Lady Rachel, Oleh Oleh Bandu Bandong, All This Crazy Gift of Time.
